Figure 2: Rear panel connections for power, ground, remote, input, and speaker outputs.
5.2.1 Conexões de energia
- +12V (Alimentação): Connect directly to the positive terminal of the vehicle's battery using an appropriate gauge power cable and an inline fuse within 18 inches of the battery.
- GND (Terra): Connect to a clean, solid metal chassis point as close to the amplifier as possible. Ensure the connection point is free of paint or corrosion.
- REM (Ativação Remota): Connect to the remote turn-on lead from your head unit or an ignition-switched 12V source.
5.2.2 Conexões de Entrada
Conecte os cabos RCA das entradas pré-amplificadas da sua unidade principal...amp saídas para o amplifier's input terminals (AMP1, AMP2, SUB).
5.2.3 Conexões dos alto-falantes
Connect your speakers to the designated speaker terminals (AMP1, AMP2, SUB). Observe correct polarity (+ to + and - to -) for optimal sound performance. The KXMA900.5 supports both stereo and bridged configurations for AMP1 e AMP2 channels, and a dedicated subwoofer channel.
6. Configuração e ajustes
The KXMA900.5 amplifier features various controls for fine-tuning your audio system.
Figure 3: Control panel showing gain, crossover, and EQ settings.
6.1 Gain Setting
O controle de GANHO corresponde ao amplifier's input sensitivity to the output level of your head unit. To set the gain:
- Vire o amplifier gain to its minimum setting.
- Turn the head unit volume up to about 75% of its maximum level.
- Aumente lentamente o amplifier gain until you hear slight distortion, then back it off slightly.
6.2 Cruzamentos
O amplifier features variable high-pass (HP), low-pass (LP), and band-pass (BP) crossovers for AMP1 e AMP2, and a low-pass (LP) and sub-sonic filter for the SUB channel. Adjust these to direct appropriate frequencies to your speakers and subwoofer.
- HPF (Filtro Passa-Alta): Allows frequencies above the set point to pass through. Typically used for full-range speakers.
- LPF (Filtro Passa-Baixa): Permite a passagem de frequências abaixo do ponto de ajuste. Normalmente usado em subwoofers.
- Sub-Sonic Filter: Filters out extremely low frequencies that are inaudible and can damage subwoofers.
6.3 KICK EQ (Bass Boost)
The KICK EQ control allows you to increase the bass output at a specific frequency. Use this feature sparingly to avoid distortion and potential speaker damage.
7. Instruções de operação
Once properly installed and configured, the KXMA900.5 amplifier will automatically turn on and off with your head unit. Ensure your head unit's volume is at a reasonable level before starting playback. Adjust the head unit's balance and fader controls as desired. For optimal sound, avoid operating the system at maximum volume for extended periods, which can lead to distortion and component damage.
8. Solução De Problemas
Se o seu amplifier is not functioning correctly, consult the following table for common issues and solutions:
| Problema | Possível causa | Solução |
|---|---|---|
| Sem energia/Sem som | Blown fuse, loose power/ground connection, no remote turn-on signal. | Check inline fuse, verify power/ground connections, check remote wire for 12V. |
| Som distorcido | Gain set too high, improper crossover settings, damaged speakers. | Reduce gain, adjust crossovers, inspect speakers for damage. |
